hi, I am Azeyeh. I woke up several mornings ago with a pain at the joint that links my index finger to my hand. I didn t make a fuss about it, I thought it was just my sleeping position. it ran for about 3 days. thought the pain would go away. but when I woke this morning, the pain became more intense. I know that s not supposed to be happening but I don t know what could be causing it. here you go for my email: YYYY@YYYY . Good luck answering the question.
